Do you have DTS + LWFW + SNUB MOUNT?? I have some questions

I have had about 7500 miles on my lwfw, and about 10000 on my snubmount. Recently i installed my DTS and now under high rpm decel's (4000+ rpm) i get a nasty grinding or vibration sound coming from the transmission. Is this normal? I dont mind it if its normal, i just dont want it to be the flywheel grinding a hole in the tranny case

Chattering should occur only at low-rpm... 4000+ seems high to me.

I only get a slight chatter at very low rpms...typically 2nd gear parking lot type scenario.

Well, i have the normal low RPM chatter under ACCEL, but i'm talking DECELL..

When running through the gears, or downshifting, even with rev matching, when i let the gear slow the car down, i get this sound/vibration, after installing the DTS.
